QPR

 

QPR QPR stands for Question, Persuade, Refer and can be taught in 1 hour.

 

QPR involves 3 simple steps that anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide. Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to help. Each year thousands of Americans, are saying “Yes” to saving the life of a friend, colleague, sibling, or neighbor.
